Unique properties of ZnO and the ease of the growth of its nanostructures make this material extremely attractive for a variety of optoelectronic applications. To fully exploit the potential of ZnO, there is one essential problem which must be solved: the preparation of a high-quality rectifying junction. The lack of p-type electrical conductivity in ZnO emphasizes the importance of the study of hybrid heterojunctions. One of the key issues in these heterojunctions is to understand the charge transport mechanism. Our goal is to systematically analyze the charge transport mechanism in hybrid heterojunctions formed by a single ZnO nanorod or the array of nanorods and p-type GaN(SiC) substrate. Project goals present a considerable challenge with a wide range of potential applications, particularly in light-emitting devices, photodetectors and solar cells.
